looking for an rs4

[charliesum]

hi guys years since ihave posted but after a few years in bmw i am looking towards an rs4 b5
i owned kim collins rs3 a few years ago and whilst i loved the engine it was only ever a fun pocket rocket
i am looking at a rs4 as a daily driver and have only just started looking i have recently left a 335d tourer running 350 brake and 540 lb ft evolve remap (5 sec 60) and although i realise that i will forgo any mpg i would like to have a tunable car
from memory the rs3 was about 470 bhp and i would like something similar but able to use with the family and dog (guess a bit more grown up!)
most adverts seem to point to nick johnson what are the cars really like?
any help greatfully received

The RS4 was a great family hauler for me. I "only" had the MTM remap to 420BHP and it was certainly my kids' preferred mode of transportation. I liked the understated look with supercar performance. Stock brakes are fine if you are planning road use only and I found the stock suspension just about comfortable but you can certainly go a lot more extreme. Even the "hard" wheels buckle quite easily with the low profile tires. You'll certainly miss the BMWs mpg and torque. I was in the 20-22 mpg range driving back and forth to work. My car was very reliable and I wished I could have taken it with me back to the US. It's now for sale with NJ. I bought an E63 AMG to get pretty much the same fun factor at a much higher price.

Go and see Nick, he has plenty of cars in stock all the time and you will get to have a good look around the cars.

I have such a car for sale. How does 550 horsepower in an estate car sound?

Mine is up for sale with quite a few mods done at kim's place, she is only rumming 420bhp at the mo but it wouldnt take much to beef up the power, however it is in stunning condition and all the majors are done it is in the classifieds if you are interested.
